< Kronika 2 4 >
1 Fia Solomo wɔ akɔblivɔsamlekpui aɖe; edidi mita asieke, keke mita asieke eye wòkɔ mita ene kple afã.
Solomon made a bronze altar twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.
2 Etsɔ gayibɔ wɔ gazɔ si le nogo, eƒe ta ƒe kekeme anɔ mita eve kple afã kpe ɖo, gazɔ la ƒe kɔkɔme anɔ mita ɖeka kple afã. Ne wodzidze zɔ la ƒe kekeme blibo la, anɔ mita wuietɔ̃ kple afã.
He made a “Sea” from cast metal, ten cubits in diameter, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.
3 Wowɔ nyitsu siwo ƒe lolome anɔ mita afã la, ɖe zɔ la te. Wowɔ nyitsuawo ɖe fli eve me eye fliawo tsyia ɖe wo nɔewo nu, abe gazɔ la ke ene.
Below it were ornamental bulls all around it, ten per cubit. They were in two rows when it was all cast.
4 Wotsɔ zɔ la da ɖe nyitsu wuieve dzi. Etɔ̃ dze ŋgɔ anyiehe, etɔ̃ dze ŋgɔ ɣetoɖoƒe, etɔ̃ dze ŋgɔ dziehe eye etɔ̃ dze ŋgɔ ɣedzeƒe. Wotsɔ zɔ la da ɖe wo tame eye zɔ la ƒe afɔwo le woƒe titina.
The Sea was supported by twelve statues of bulls three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The Sea was placed on them, with their rears toward the center.
5 Zɔ la tri sentimita enyi, eƒe to le abe tsinokplu tɔ ene eye wowɔe abe ale si dzogbenya ƒe seƒoƒo le ene. Exɔa tsi kilolita blaade-vɔ-ade.
It was as thick as the width of a hand, and its edge was like the flared edge of a cup or a lily flower. It held three thousand baths.
6 Solomo gawɔ gagba ewo da ɖi be woaklɔ numevɔsanuwo ɖe wo me; atɔ̃ le dziehe gome eye atɔ̃ hã le dziehe gome na gazɔ gã la. Nunɔlawo mewɔa gagbawo ŋudɔ le tsilele me o, ke boŋ wowɔa gazɔ la ŋu dɔ.
He also made ten basins on carts for washing. He placed five on the south side, and five on the north. They were used for cleaning what was used in burnt offerings, but the Sea was used by the priests for washing.
7 Solomo wɔ Mawu ƒe ɖoɖowo dzi eye wòwɔ sikakaɖiti ewo da ɖe gbedoxɔ la me, atɔ̃ nɔ gli ŋu le dziehe gome eye atɔ̃ hã nɔ gli ŋu le anyiehe gome.
He made ten gold lampstands as had been specified, and placed them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north.
8 Ewɔ kplɔ̃ ewo hã; eda atɔ̃ ɖe gli ŋu le dziehe gome, atɔ̃ hã nɔ gli ŋu le anyiehe gome eye wòwɔ sikatre ewo hã.
In addition he made ten tables and placed them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north. He also made a hundred gold basins.
9 Ewɔ xɔxɔnu ɖeka na nunɔlawo, bubu na ame mamlɛawo eye wòfa akɔbli ɖe xɔxɔnu sia ƒe gliwo ŋu.
Solomon also built a courtyard of the priests, and the large courtyard and doors for the courtyard, and he covered the doors with bronze.
10 Gazɔ gã la nɔ gbedoxɔ la ƒe gotaxɔwo ƒe dzogoe si nɔ dziehe kple ɣedzeƒe dome.
He placed the Sea on the south side, by the southeast corner.
11 Huram gawɔ zewo, sofiwo kple tre siwo ŋudɔ woawɔ le vɔsasa me. Ale wòwu dɔ si Fia Solomo de asi nɛ le Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la ŋu nu.
Hiram also made the pots, shovels, and basins. Hiram completed the work that he had been doing for King Solomon on the Temple of God:
12 Dɔ siawoe nye sɔti eveawo tutu; tameɖonu ɖeka ɖeka na sɔti eveawo; wotsi kɔsɔkɔsɔ eve ɖe tameɖonu nogoawo ŋu le sɔtiawo tame,
the two columns; the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the columns; the two sets of network that covered both bowls of the capitals on top of the columns;
13 yevuboɖa alafa ene le agbaka eve me le gaɖɔ ɖeka ŋu ne woxe ta mligo eve siwo le sɔtiawo tame la ŋu.
the four hundred ornamental pomegranates for the two sets of network—two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals on top of the columns;
14 Gagbawo kple woƒe zɔwo,
the water carts and the basins on the water carts;
15 gazɔ ɖeka kple nyitsu wuieve siwo le ete;
the Sea and the twelve bull statues that supported it; the pots, shovels, forks, and everything else.
16 zewo, sofiwo kple gaflowo. Huram Abi, aɖaŋutɔ gã la wɔ nu siawo katã kple akɔbli si woƒo la na Fia Solomo hena Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la.
All the metalwork Hiram made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord was of polished bronze.
17 Fia la na wololõ ga la kɔ ɖe nu si wowɔ ɖe nuawo ƒe nɔnɔme me le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe balime le Sukɔt kple Zereda dome.
The king cast them in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zeredah.
18 Akɔbli siwo ŋu dɔ Solomo wɔ la sɔ gbɔ ale gbegbe be, womete ŋu dae o.
Solomon made so many of these things that the weight of the bronze used could not be measured.
19 Solomo na wotsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la me nuwo katã. Nu siawoe nye: vɔsamlekpui kple kplɔ̃ siwo dzi wodaa Ŋkumeɖobolo ɖo.
Solomon also made everything used in the Temple of God: the golden altar; the tables where the Bread of the Presence was displayed;
20 Etsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ akaɖitiawo kple woƒe akaɖiawoe be woanɔ bibim le Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe kɔkɔeƒe la ŋgɔ abe ale si woɖoe da ɖi ene.
the lampstands of pure gold and their lamps that were to burn in front of the Most Holy Place as specified;
21 Wotsɔ sika wɔ seƒoƒowo eye wotsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ akaɖiawo kple ɖovulãnuwo.
the decorative flowers, lamps, and tongs—all made of solid gold;
22 Wotsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ akaɖimeɖovulãnuwo, ʋuhlẽgbawo, nuɖugbawo kple dzudzɔdonuwo eye wotsɔ sika wɔ gbedoxɔ la ƒe ʋɔtruwo, ʋɔtru emetɔ si le Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la nu kple ʋɔtru siwo le akpata gã la nu.
the wick trimmers, basins, dishes and censers—all made of gold; and the doors of the Temple: the inner doors to the Most Holy Place, and the doors of the main hall—all covered with gold.
